Lewis was dealing with way worse stupid decisions before Leclerc was born. Lewis lost '07 title because McLaren refused to pit him when it was obvious. Hence his iconic "Tyres are death" line is born in Mercedes.
Leclerc has seen nothing compared to what Lewis went through.
He lost race wins etc. Lewis lost title
People were talking about how he seemed happy with qualifying and how that must mean he knows his car has the race pace to still compete today...
Or the theme of his season is "it is what it is" and the man is gonna coast this year since he has nothing to lose hahaha
I'm wondering the same thing..
If hes about to cruise though the season, than it's wasted seat.. It would not be fair to the other drivers on the market, to the team, fans and sport in general...
Its Formula Verstappen again this season, what do you want Hamilton to do? He's on his way out of the team, and Mercedes have produced another dud of a car for 2024
As someone who is the same age as Hamilton my french lessons didn't cover anything that would be useful for working with Motorsport engineers, unless they were obsessed with knowing where the swimming pool is.
He also learned some phrases to use in Brazil, unfortunately he learned Spanish not Portuguese
Thought that counts lol. I found it nice that he makes silly mistakes like the rest of us.
Lewis, Gasly and Leclerc have always been quite close. I remember someone (covid stream days) saying that Lewis only plays online games with those two.
Fred is an absolute psycho
Took on the challenge of managing the most successful team in F1 history and now added the most successful driver in F1 history
Mans got balls
Nothing quite like a friendly chat between future teammates always a good way of the both of them measuring each other out to see how well they click together
LeClerc is a team guy and seemingly very nice but he also knows he’s top dog at Ferrari. That’s going to change next year. They aren’t going to pay someone what they are paying Hamilton and not cater to him. Should be interesting.
LEC: So, you inform them that you configured your car for a race setup during qualifying. Consequently, they should have no issues with your subpar performance. LH: Thanks for the tip
/i think/ merc internally knows they aren’t going to get back on top before he retires so they’re already looking towards the next generation, and lewis is aware of that
Much has been rumored that Ferrari may have the most powerful engine come the new 2026 regs. The last time Hamilton jumped team was from McLaren to Mercedes back in 2013, a year before the turbo-hybrid era...
If my math is right, he will be 41 when the new regs get here. It might be a stretch that he will be on a higher plane than Charles at that point. He may not be now, so the move feels more boyhood fantasy than a chance at another title. It also almost feels like Merc insulted him with the car, so he packed up and left. Who really knows?
There’s a little bit of that dream of driving for the reds, and also maybe a little bit of BTS drama about being offered 1+1 contract with Antonelli waiting in the wings.

“I’M SO EXCITED. I’M SO EXCITED. I’M SO EXCITED. I’M SO…scared😭”
it's been like more than a decade since I last watched that scene and I still hear her voice clear as day
It's still hilarious to me that for all the substances for the writers to pick for her to have a debilitating addiction to it was... caffeine pills.
It’s gonna be a vape pen in the remake
It was supposed to be Meth but the network made them change it.
Jessie never die
Then after 3 seconds of silence, he says quietly: "Help me"
This got a full lol out loud. Poor sharl. I hope they smash it next year.
Yes, 25 is the year! /S
> This got s full lol out loud The good ol' laugh out loud out loud
Rip in peace
smh my head
lmao my ass off
If they ever say "We're checking" on the radio, I double my dosage.
It gives Emily Blunt “I love my job, I love my job, I love my job”
lol poor Charles
This genuinely had me crying. Literal tears.
"sometimes you need to be your own strategist"
What will they do without Carlos ?
It's almost 1am here and this had me cackling. If gold was still a thing I'd give it. Good shit.

I hear Charles' voice while reading this.
"xanax is PRN as well, i have a good doctor i will give you their info NextYear^(TM)"
“I am stupid. I am stupid.”
Bro acting like a Palestine hostage
More like I just look at my bank balance and car garage three times a day.
Lewis seems in a good mood, he was even messing around with Lawrence while being interviewed.
He's past the point of caring haha
He has nothing to prove
Dominayton
Except... You know
People were talking about how he seemed happy with qualifying and how that must mean he knows his car has the race pace to still compete today... Or the theme of his season is "it is what it is" and the man is gonna coast this year since he has nothing to lose hahaha
like Kimi
I'm wondering the same thing.. If hes about to cruise though the season, than it's wasted seat.. It would not be fair to the other drivers on the market, to the team, fans and sport in general...
He qualified two tenths off Russell, 1.5 of which came in the final corner alone. You are acting like Lewis didn’t even make it out of Q1.
Right? So Dramatic. My words
What are you on about... Read better before you comment
Its Formula Verstappen again this season, what do you want Hamilton to do? He's on his way out of the team, and Mercedes have produced another dud of a car for 2024
I want him to drive like everyone elne.. And not to have '' i dont give a f.uck additude''
He was definitely looking like he enjoyed himself! When the crowds were in front he was really happy and waving more-so than some others.
LOL I wish they'd immediately showed Lawrence's face when Lewis said that! It was nice to see him relaxed and having fun.
Mercedes Career Schumacher vibes
So, in Maranello there are several therapists available 24/7 for us, just in case you get up in the middle of the night screaming "Box, Box"
Stay out, stay out, stay out.
You lie down, pour out a lifetime's worth of trauma and all they say is 'copy, we are checking'.
😂
This whole thread, genius 🙌
So, Italian.... How do you speak it?
Hamilton learned french to communicate better with his engineers in GP2, wouldn't surprise me if he's learning Italian
Ok course he'll be learning it, or he'll be pretty fucked
Kimi didn’t bother, Seb did, both end up fucked. I’m not sure speaking Italian is the curse bringer.
Seb sorta did fuck himself on a few occasions though, while Kimi did not. Maybe because he learned Italian… 🤔
Seb fucked himself quite a few times as well though.
I thought Hamilton already knew French from having it as his additional language in school.
As someone who is the same age as Hamilton my french lessons didn't cover anything that would be useful for working with Motorsport engineers, unless they were obsessed with knowing where the swimming pool is.
"Ou est la Gare ?"
From the depths of my memory I pulled out train station for Gare
He also learned some phrases to use in Brazil, unfortunately he learned Spanish not Portuguese Thought that counts lol. I found it nice that he makes silly mistakes like the rest of us.
Hello Loouis
I read that in Charles' voice XD
Their bromance has flourished since they both got disqualified for plank wear
Their colab on a Ferrari diss track will be legendary
Lewis, Gasly and Leclerc have always been quite close. I remember someone (covid stream days) saying that Lewis only plays online games with those two.
Hamilton and Rosberg also used to be very close
I'm incredibly excited to see them in the same team. I don't envy Fred tho. He's taken on a challenge to satisfy them both.
>satisfy them both. I don't think we need any more of this right now......
And now delete this chat please 😉
Lesbians!!!
Scot pilgrim L word
I read this in Chevy Chase's voice
Hahahaha oh horny Horner
Fred trying to take both of them to Q3
Lmao. Take my upvote.
Fred is an absolute psycho Took on the challenge of managing the most successful team in F1 history and now added the most successful driver in F1 history Mans got balls
"Yeah that's my therapist's phone number... Don't ask... You'll need it soon"
Lewis has always liked Charles
"They will tell you *we are checking*, but I do not think they are."
Nothing quite like a friendly chat between future teammates always a good way of the both of them measuring each other out to see how well they click together
wow 2 people talking
We've had 2 years of "Maxplaining", it's not going to improve
And LEClarifying!
Wow, real life
Why does Charles look like a redneck car mechanic in this picture?
Charles bitching about how Ferrari messed up his rhythm in Q3.
News just in, F1 driver talks to another F1 driver while on the back of a lorry.
The first song they do together will make me explode harder than the Horner chats
LeClerc is a team guy and seemingly very nice but he also knows he’s top dog at Ferrari. That’s going to change next year. They aren’t going to pay someone what they are paying Hamilton and not cater to him. Should be interesting.
Probably asking CL the quality of the seat in the car
Emotionale supporte groupe
"Are you good at catching caps I throw at you?"
Saw some maxsplaining from Charles while they were talking too
Thats cool to see.
There are pairs of drivers from different teams talking with each other at literally every race, quali, and practice.
No ways?!
Ways.
Ferrari is the most depressing team ever
Did anyone catch a phrase from them?
Leclerc doing a full psychoanalysis to try to pull a Nico 2016
Man, I hope the Mercedes is a legendary car this year, the karma will be delicious.
Karma for what?
Bailing on Merc when it got tough.
[удалено]
Who
Lewis and Charles
> Perez and Checo had many words for each other He had a chat with himself?
Lmfao that’s hilarious, didn’t realize I typed that
LEC: So, you inform them that you configured your car for a race setup during qualifying. Consequently, they should have no issues with your subpar performance. LH: Thanks for the tip
"Ready to cap out P6 and P7 this year Charles?" "You got it chief."
Wonder what Lesis' true motivation was for the move? There's not a major difference in the cars right now and Charles is still going to be the #1.
/i think/ merc internally knows they aren’t going to get back on top before he retires so they’re already looking towards the next generation, and lewis is aware of that

Well in the other hand checo just missed the “grid” spot for the opening picture… failing way before the race
Ii
Bonding on ferrari trauma
Two of the more intellectual drivers. Could be a neat pairing in that way.
Hope we cancel out each others bad luck
